Rosie O’Donnell is leaving The View. I don’t think anyone is sure of the actual truth regarding this story yet but Rosie won’t be on the morning show nearly as much next year. She will leave the show in mid-June.

Rosie O’Donnell said: “Breaking News. I’ve decided we couldn’t come to terms with my deal.” Rosie wanted one year and ABC wanted three years. She says she’ll be on frequently next season but won’t be a regular.

Barbara said she’s sad and that they have not thought of a replacement. TMZ has learned the word is already out in Hollywood to find one.

Hey Rosie, they couldn’t come to terms with you because they don’t want you back. Rumor is that Rosie thinks she can get her own show. I believe she has already failed at that venture before.

Rosie had told arch rival Donald Trump to ‘eat me’ over the weekend.

The record should probably state that Bill O’Reilly called for ABC to fire Rosie nearly three weeks ago.

Any thoughts that this is all just a ruse to help cover the firing of Rosie? Coincidence?
